To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I Fnux Onoaxowsnr, a citizen of Russia, residing atClarksbur in of Harrison and State of est V11 inia, ave invented certainnew and use. ful mprovements in Windows and Screens, of which thefollowin is a specification.

This invention re ates to windows and screens therefor and has Specialreference to a detachable roller window screen. r

One important object of the invention 15 to improve and simplif thegeneral construction of devices of this character.

A second imsortant object of the invention is to provi e an improvedroller screen which may be attached to any window now in existencewithout interfering with the usual movement of such window to any extentand without makingit necessary to reconstruct any of the parts of thewindow or frame.

A third important object of the invention is to rovide a screen of thischaracter which ay locked in closed position both for 'nvenience inportability and to hold the window locked.

With the above and other objects in view, as will be hereinafter aparent the invention consists in general certain novel details ofconstruction and combinations of parts hereinafter fully described,illustrated in the accompanying drawing, and specifically claimed.

In the accompanying drawing, like characters of reference indlcatelikeparts in the several views, and Fi re 1 is a face view of the inside ofthe ower portion of a window equipped with this invention.

Fig. 2 is a section on the line 2-2 of ig. '3 is a section on the line3-3 of kg. 4 is an enlarged detail plan view of the casing removed fromthe window and ermit the device being shown on a large sea e. Fig. 5 isa section on the line 55 of ig. 6 is a perspective view of the lockboltused herewith.

in n the embodiment of the invention herein disclosed there has beendisclosed a window and its frame; the frame consisting of side members10 and a sill 11 and the window having ordina glazed sash 12. Movableinto and out 0 position on the sill 11 is a casing 13, the windowmolding being cut away at its lower part to accommodate the ends of thecasing as can be seen by reference to Fig. 1 at 14. Within this casingis mounted an ordinary spring shade roller 15 whereon is wound afiexible'screen 16 fittin between the sides. On the free edge of thisscreen there is provided a bar 17 having lugs or studs 18 on its upperedge which are arranged to fit in suita le openings 19 on a bar 20screwed or otherwise secured to the lower edge of the sash 12. Thus thescreen is readily detachable from the sash and the sash can be shut downin the ordinary manner, a pocket 21 bein provided in the sill for thereception of t e studs 18. The casing is greferably made with thefrontand top hinge as at 22 to the bottom and these parts are held inlocked position by means of books 23. Fu crmore, within thecasing is acam plate 2 k; ugedjto the top and through the casing passe! a lockingbar 25 having a bent portion 26 forming a lug which en- ,%es the cam barwhen in one position to no the locking bar inward while, when thelocking bar is in its second position, the lug is so moved as to permitoutward movement of the locking bar as a whole. On the end of thislocking bar is a lug 27 which is arranged to fit, when the window isclosed in an opening 28 formed in the bar 17. T us when the window isclosed it can be locked in closed position by the locking bar and also,when it is desired to remove the screen entirely from the window, theedge of the screen may be locked in positionso that it cannot-slip intothe casing and wind up too It is obvious that many minor changes may bemade in the form and construction of the invention without departingfrom the material principles thereof. It is not therefore desired toconfine the invention to the exact form herein shown and described butit is wished to include all such as properly come within the scopeclaimed.

Havin thus described the invention, what is claimed as new, is

1. The combination with a window frame and sash; of a casing removablyfixed in the lower part of said frame, a roller in said casing, a screencarried b said roller, coacting connecting means on t e sash and the endof the screen, and lockin means carried by the casing and engageab ewiththe connecting means on the screen to prevent movement of the latterrelative to the casing.

2. The combination with a window frame and sash; of a casing removablyfixed in the lower part of said frame, a roller in said casing, a screencarried by said roller coacting connecting means on the sash and the endof the screen, comprising bars fixed to the lower edge of the sash andthe end of the screen, .one of said bars having openings the lower partof said frame, a re ler in said casing, a screen carried by said roller,co-

acting connecting means on the sash and the end of the screen, andlockin means carried by the casing and engagea 10 with the connectingmeans on the screen to prevent movement of the latter relative to thecasin the means on the screen also having a 100 bolt receiving openinand a lock bolt carried by the casing an arranged to enter thelast-mentioned opening.
